Little Tibbe is just 5 lbs. and I am always rubbing his back and shoulders, scratching him, etc., and have never felt the chip and he never shows any any any reaction to my touching the area of where I think the chip is somewhere between his shoulder blades.
He had no reaction to the procedure and no subsequent ill effects. I think the chip tumor risk is so tiny as to be negligible.
I know anything that will give me an extra chance of getting a lost Tibbe back is well worth the effort and I would have paid far more than the tiny fee I was charged to get this added insurance.
